• 56ff5efad   zero i_uid/i_gid on inode allocation ... Browse Code »

  ... and don't bother in callers. Don't bother with zeroing i_blocks,
  while we are at it - it's already been zeroed.

  i_mode is not worth the effort; it has no common default value.

• 51cc50685   SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructor ... Browse Code »

  Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
  themselves multiplexeres. Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
  passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.

  Non-trivial places are:
  arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c
  arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c

  This is flag day, yes.
